Some doctors handing out prescriptions to kids for potent medications | Health | Dallas-Fort ...: "With little oversight and apparent carte blanche, a relative handful of Texas physicians wrote $47 million worth of Medicaid prescriptions for powerful antipsychotic and anti-anxiety drugs over the past two years, according to a Star-Telegram analysis.
The top five doctors alone wrote $18 million worth.
Most of the drugs have gone to children and adolescents, although prescribing the drugs to children, such as a toddler, is considered 'off-label' -- uses not approved by the federal Food and Drug Administration."
